If you're having trouble start a game as a Siren.
The Siren is so powerful it's almost cheating to play as her. I played Borderlands as a Siren and went with the Siren in BL 2 also. She's got nice crowd/tank control with her special, can gain regenerating health [with and without an artifact] and leech health, gains bonus elemental damage and chance for elemental damage, can add corrode damage to her attacks, and has powers to boost speed, bullet damage, bullet speed, and shield capacity. She can inflict and enhance fire and corrode damage with artifacts as well.
If you want to destroy Borderlands 2 go with the Siren in single player and spec her out for regenerating health and elemental damage bonuses. You'll have to use artifacts for health regeneration at first, but keeping a corrode artifact on hand for tough robot battles and putting points in her damage skill tree to gain the corrosive cloud skill makes it so you can tear through the robot hordes with ease.
I also recommend hanging on to a fire damage artifact for battles with some of the tougher NPCs and creatures in the game.
Plus, it's easy to match up with a multiplayer group as she can be speced to act as a medic. Sirens are always welcome in multiplayer because they can keep a team alive and deal out massive elemental damage as well. Acting as a healer class is especially useful when going for the big nasty bonus bosses with a group. She can instantly revive a fallen ally with her special attack, can give the entire team a regenerating health bonus, and can heal other players by shooting them. Not to mention some of her artifacts also give bonuses to shield capacity, elemental damage, and health for the whole team. As a multiplayer character in BL2 she's the Buffs queen.
The Siren is without a doubt the most powerful player character in the game.
